So, I have a NIB ST 60 that I plan to run in a Brodak Strega ARF. Engine questions:
1. How much break in for this ringed, baffle piston engine? I'm thinking just enough to get the ring to seat, as observed with an even color to the ring. Maybe 3 runs?
2. What fuel? Likely I'd use 5% nitro, with oil in the 20-22% range, about a quarter or half of that being castor.
3. What prop? Probably I'd use a Rev-Up 12-5, maybe a 13-5 of some sort.
4. What tank size? The standard 6 oz sounds fine.
5. How to start it? Probably choke it 6 flips, six more flips no choke, attach batt, flip forward to start.
I'm kind of familiar with this engine, as I've launched another club member's plane a number of times. However, still interested in your thoughts, as well.
thanks,
Peter
